Expiration Date: Saturday, October 16, 2027 NOFO Number: NOT-NS-24-073 Release Date: Tuesday, July 9, 2024 Notice Type: Notice of Special Interest
Ethical considerations are intrinsic to the responsible conduct of neuroscience research and the translation of neuroscience advances (scientific and technological) into practice. This Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) highlights interest in receiving grant applications to advance research on ethical questions relevant to the NINDS mission of pursuing important work to gain a deeper understanding of the brain and nervous system to develop effective therapies for all people.
Expiration Date: Thursday, January 23, 2025 NOFO Number: RFA-MH-26-100 Release Date: Tuesday, July 9, 2024 Notice Type: RFA
The goal of this effort is to support the development and validation of next generation platforms and analytic approaches to precisely quantify behaviors in humans and link them with simultaneously recorded brain activity. Tools used for analyzing behavior should be multi-modal and should be able to be linked to brain activity and thus have the accuracy, specificity, temporal resolution, and flexibility commensurate with tools used to measure and modulate the brain circuits that give rise to those behaviors. This phased award will support novel tool development (i.e., hardware/software) in the R61 phase and synchronization of novel tools for measuring behavior and human brain activity in the R33 phase.
